If we enable SR-IOV on a vfio-pci owned PF, the resulting VFs are not fully isolated from the PF. The PF can always cause a denial of service to the VF, even if by simply resetting itself. The degree to which a PF can access the data passed through a VF or interfere with its operation is dependent on a given SR-IOV implementation. Therefore we want to avoid a scenario where an existing vfio-pci based userspace driver might assume the PF driver is trusted, for example assigning a PF to one VM and VF to another with some expectation of isolation. IOMMU grouping could be a solution to this, but imposes an unnecessarily strong relationship between PF and VF drivers if they need to operate with the same IOMMU context. Instead we introduce a "VF token", which is essentially just a shared secret between PF and VF drivers, implemented as a UUID. The VF token can be set by a vfio-pci based PF driver and must be known by the vfio-pci based VF driver in order to gain access to the device. This allows the degree to which this VF token is considered secret to be determined by the applications and environment. For example a VM might generate a random UUID known only internally to the hypervisor while a userspace networking appliance might use a shared, or even well know, UUID among the application drivers. To incorporate this VF token, the VFIO_GROUP_GET_DEVICE_FD interface is extended to accept key=value pairs in addition to the device name. This allows us to most easily deny user access to the device without risk that existing userspace drivers assume region offsets, IRQs, and other device features, leading to more elaborate error paths. The format of these options are expected to take the form: "$DEVICE_NAME $OPTION1=$VALUE1 $OPTION2=$VALUE2" Where the device name is always provided first for compatibility and additional options are specified in a space separated list. The relation between and requirements for the additional options will be vfio bus driver dependent, however unknown or unused option within this schema should return error. This allow for future use of unknown options as well as a positive indication to the user that an option is used. An example VF token option would take this form: "0000:03:00.0 vf_token=2ab74924-c335-45f4-9b16-8569e5b08258" When accessing a VF where the PF is making use of vfio-pci, the user MUST provide the current vf_token. When accessing a PF, the user MUST provide the current vf_token IF there are active VF users or MAY provide a vf_token in order to set the current VF token when no VF users are active. The former requirement assures VF users that an unassociated driver cannot usurp the PF device. These semantics also imply that a VF token MUST be set by a PF driver before VF drivers can access their device, the default token is random and mechanisms to read the token are not provided in order to protect the VF token of previous users. Use of the vf_token option outside of these cases will return an error, as discussed above.
